Executive Summary

As per survey of a UN State of world population, urbanisation in India is going to grow to 40.76% by 2030 & as per World Bank by 2050, India along with China and Indonesia will lead the surge in urban population. With that context in mind transportation will be one of the key areas to focus for development of India. So automobile will become the pivot sector for the turnaround of Indian Economy. At present, aggregators like Uber and OLA have already disrupted the Indian passenger car sector. Trend has changed from people owing vehicles to sharing them to travel.

We have analysed the Theme B from HERO’s point of view. Since it is dominant in the two wheeler segment of the Indian automobile market. We have captured trends for the automobile sector in general and two wheeler in detail to understand the market. Then we have devised plan for Hero to convert the threat of aggregators or shared services into opportunities which can be leveraged for future growth. The future of mobility is sharing as one would like hassle free and less time consuming travel with no ownership cost. Person would like to pay only for the travel and would like to have services of the best quality. This would involve upgradation in skillset, technology and overall understanding of the market on the part of the service provider.

Hero can thus enter into the service provider scheme of things & with a strong base of vehicles already present, it can tie up or start its own service & sharing model to expand the reach. This can one of the best solution to stay ahead in the competition. With the central theme of sharing & servicing of two wheelers in mind we have devised strategy for Hero with timelines and financials to capture the growing market.

The technological impact can never be left behind, it will also be the driver of change, mobile services, e-vehicles will also create a market for themselves and thus the analysis cannot be completely in isolation to the above changes. We have though focussed more on the urbanisation and sharing perspective but have devised some strategies using mobile platforms for better implementation.
